Remote Access to PostgreSQL on Windows 10

I have PostgreSQL 12 load on my Windows 10 workstation, however, I'm unable to access the service remotely from another machine/workstation.  I've create both inbound and outbound rules specifying port 5432 and postgres as the service to interact with. 

If I drop the firewall I'm able to connect to the service with no issues.  Are there any firewall logs on Windows 10 that tell me when connection attempts are being made to help me solve my problem?  I've tried using the event log to help but found nothing that lead me to a solution. 

Thanks in Advance

Hi, my name is Nigel and I am an Independent Advisor here to try and work with you on this issue you are having.

Please the the video below on setting the rule in Windows firewall.
Can you confirm this is how you are currently doing it?
